About this deal

One of the things that is quite disappointing about this whole process is that from the outset, we made an active decision to manufacture in the UK. We've remained faithful to that and it feels as though the UK government hasn’t necessarily helped us. We have about half a dozen products in the pipeline that are in a very advanced stage but we've not been able to commit the capital to bring those to the market yet because of the other Brexit costs and problems we’ve been confronted with."

Presumably you mean the civil service? They could certainly act as a drag on process or advise caution but at the end of the day they'll be doing what has been legislated for. But could it be the legislation / agreements were ropey due to ... political reasons?I couldn't say there was anything positive," Jerry Lawson said at the time. "There's extra paperwork, and there are extra costs. And there's a whole lot of unknown.

Andrew says the firm is now – in addition to its existing direct customer market – building an active strategy focussed on built-environment stakeholders. One of the things that is quite disappointing about this whole process is that from the outset, we made an active decision to manufacture in the UK.

On the demand side the failure to provide a rational system for economic migration aligned to our national interest is a clear failure of government. The old idea that we need more people to boost our industrial output is not very convincing given the automation that is usual in manufacturing. Wall-mounted bicycle storage firm Cycloc is to cease production, with its founder citing the impact of Brexit as one of the principal reasons for the decision. Even then, the financial burden proved too onerous, and with Lowe saying that it was clear that sales to the EU were “not going to recover to their pre-Brexit levels,” the facility would have continued operating at a loss. To say the Brexit process was gritty is an understatement," she said. "Within 12 months of having got it up and running, we just had to take this decision to close it because it wasn't covering its costs."

We have about half a dozen products in the pipeline that are in a very advanced stage but we've not been able to commit the capital to bring those to the market yet because of the other Brexit costs and problems we’ve been confronted with.” Brexit has torpedoed some of that business, but if you are able to break into the market in America direct to customer as Andrew has done, then there is strong potential there for the future.” https://www.theguardian.com/society/2015/aug/26/right-to-buy-margaret-thatcher-david-cameron-housing-crisis The problem is that BrExit intrinsically was going to make a lot of people lose out. When your economy has been in a closely integrated free trade area with a bunch of other economies, it is just inevitable that *many* businesses will have business models that are (by intent or just organically) dependent on customers and/or supply lines within that free trade area.
